Your students will love this potato heads Valentine’s Day crime scene activity. With this pack you will be able to create a crime scene where someone has stolen Mrs Potato’s heart! Students have to investigate using the clues provided. Then, try to work out who committed the crime out of 4 possible suspects.

This crime scene is interactive, engaging and adapted to suit students ability levels.

This crime scene includes the following activities;

• Taste

The culprit left something behind for your students to taste. (Lettuce) Students have to taste the item, decide what it is and then match it to the suspect who likes to eat it.

• Smell

The culprit left something behind for your students to smell! (Mud) Students have to smell the item, decide what it is and then match it to the suspect who likes to smell this.

• Eyewitness Reports

There were 4 eye witnesses of the crime! Students need to read through their witness statements. Then, see if their information matches any of the suspects.

• Hidden Clue

Cut up the heart jigsaw (included), laminate it and hide it in a tray of mashed up chocolate cake (so it looks like mud). Students have to pull the pieces of the heart out and put it together to form a clue of what colour/color the suspect is.

• Clue Book

Students put their clues into the clue book as they go along. This way they are able to keep track of all the clues they have found. This will help them when they need to make a decision on who they think has stolen Mrs Potato’s heart.

• Find the Heart

Now we know who committed the crime – but we still need to get Mrs Potato’s heart back! Students need to follow the instructions around the map to find Mrs Potato’s heart and return it to her.

• Wanted Poster

Once students have decided who they think the criminal is – they need to make the wanted poster to capture them! Students can either draw and write the criminal’s face and name onto the wanted poster. Or, use the pictures and names we have included to cut and stick onto the wanted poster instead.

Your students will love taking part in this fun and interactive crime scene. Especially during a busy time of year when it can be hard to keep them engaged. A teachers walkthrough is also included in the pack. This will help you put together the crime scene and use it to the best of its ability. I recommend trying out the crime scene before giving it to your students. This is so you are able to familiarize yourself with the way that it works.

This comes in both spelling options i.e color/colour, favorite/favourite etc.

Almost everything that you need to complete this crime scene is included in this pack. But, you will need access to lettuce and mud for students to taste/smell.
